Great food & service. I had the shrimp platter. The shrimp was meaty, tender & fresh. Loved it. Red beans and rice, fried okra and fries were great as well. Had so much left over had to get a to go box. My daughter in law had the fish platter. Best fish I have ever had very meaty and tender. Marie is a sweet lady. We will definitely drive the hour and a half from Paducah to eat again. More...

I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but I need everyone to know how great of an experience we had today at lunch. I want to help get the word out on what a great place this is. I want this restaurant to be a booming success! My husband and I were absolutely blown away by how good everything was. We got the buffet so we could try a bit of everything, since it was the first time we had eaten there. The jerk chicken was some of the best of *any* chicken we've ever had. Juicy, a nice low level of heat, the seasonings were savory and distinctive, it was divine. I don't care for fried chicken (and a drumstick is generally my least favorite piece) but the flavor and crunch of the drumstick I had were out of this world, the meat inside still mouthwateringly tender and juicy. The chicken and okra stew was delicious, with tender okra, diced stewed tomatoes, and big pieces of chicken in a nice tomatoey sauce that was only mildly spicy but full of flavor, perfect over a little steamed rice. The chicken and dumplings were different than any I've ever had but every bit as tasty. Tender shreds of chicken in a rich chicken gravy with firm dumplings that were delightfully chewy. The bbq pork was great, with a sweet, sticky, and vinegary sauce. The coconut curry chicken was absolutely heavenly, with a mildly flavored curry sauce rich with golden turmeric clinging to fried nuggets of seasoned chicken. The hot buffet also had fried sausages, fried cabbage, green beans, mashed potatoes, brown gravy, red beans and rice, fried catfish, fried okra, collard greens, fried plantains, and probably a couple more items I'm forgetting. Everything we sampled was seasoned beautifully (which was everything other than the collards in my case). The mashed potatoes were made of actual real potatoes, and they were perfectly rich, creamy, and wonderful. It's hard to find a restaurant anymore that will serve real mashed potatoes. There was a very nicely stocked salad bar as well, with several voices of lettuces and spinach and lots of great toppings, but what stood out to me were the hard-boiled eggs, because someone did those in the kitchen and I've never had a more perfect boiled egg in a restaurant (and rarely had a more perfect boiled egg at home). Usually buffet restaurants put out the food service diced eggs that are often still partially frozen. It's just another indicator of the thought and care put into the food served there. I flagged down Marie as she was making her rounds, asking if she was responsible for the food. She admitted yes, and I asked if I could have a hug. We expressed our delight with all of her food and she was beaming with pride. The dessert bar had slices of chocolate or lemon Bundt cakes, coconut or chocolate cream pies, and lemon meringue pie, along with some fresh watermelon other fruits. I chose the lemon meringue, and it was heavenly. Marie was in the dining room again checking on another table that had come in, and I asked if she would adopt me. Naturally she laughed and said of course! TLDR: Please give this restaurant your business. You won't be disappointed in the quality or flavor of any of the food or the level of service. Tell Marie the silly chubby white lady that asked to be adopted sent you. And maybe give her a hug when you go, she gives great hugs. More...

Tore up the JerK Chicken from My Marie today .The whole plate was insane tasty .The cabbage was super tasty.The rice hit the spot fully, especially when I added the juice from the chicken and cabbage. The CHICKEN WAS AMAZE-balls so good. Spicy but not hot-hot haven't had anything like it In Cape G.Will for sure be going back for some oxtail and seafood .Add some sausage to the rice and beans and I'll be back everyday.Thanks for the great food.

Absolutely fantastic as always. My husband and I used to visit the mall location and were very excited when we learned My Marie was relocating to a more centralized location. After this long awaited re-grand opening, I can tell you it was absolutely worth the wait. We went during the lunch buffet and everything that was out was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. Neither one of us left a clean plate or bowl. I would highly recommend any of their amazing options, but I’d like to highlight the chicken and dumplings. They are heavenly! More...
